Abstract: Our knowledge of the neutron spectrum in irradiation facilities essentially rests on the calculation and on the unfolding resp. adjustment based on measured activations, more generally said reaction rates, since the other direct or indirect experimental methods here frequently are not applicable on account of technical reasons. In this situation the neutronic calculation by no means renders superfluous the unfolding because the measurements can confirm or possibly correct resp. improve the calculational results. The FORTRAN code SAND-MX2 is a contribution of the KFA to the international repertoire of unfolding codes. With regard to its contents it is one of the newer versions of the original code SAND-lI which are presently used as SAND-lI also in the laboratories of several countries as especially practice related unfolding calculational methods. This report may serve as an instruction manual for the routinely neutron spectrum unfolding by means of the code SAND-MX2. It appeared to us not to be superfluous in addition to the above mentioned aim also to give a general view of the present situation in unfolding techniqueand to touch shortly the other advanced methods because we believed thereby also to qive a better understanding of the characteristic features of our programme. In some laboratories several of the here described calculational programmes are alternatively in current use for the purpose of giving a greater confidence to the result of the neutron spectrum unfolding in question.
